'Quantico': Know all about the TV series

PeeCee: I want to dominate globally

After making a mark in Bollywood, Priyanka Chopra is spreading her wings internationally through her music and TV show. Looks like she has the intentions of dominating the global scene. The actress, who’s managing her career both in Bollywood and Hollywood with an aplomb, is currently busy with her American show 'Quantico' while back home in India, she has Bajirao Mastani up for release. “If I have to dominate globally, then I have to pay the price for it… I have to manage things. It was my choice to do things that I am doing and be responsible towards it. Quantico is the biggest show in the US. And I’m an Indian star first then an international personality,” the actress said. Managing both huge projects — Quantico and Bajirao Mastani simultaneously, does take a toll on PC’s health, but she’s happy that she is doing a variety of work.

Priyanka battles bizarre questions about India!

Now that Priyanka Chopra spends a lot of time in America, she obviously has a lot of new friends and a social circle too. But what surprises her is that in spite of the US being inhabited by such a large population of Indians, she's posed with some of the strangest questions by her friends and acquaintances. She tells us, “People are shocked that I can speak fluently in English.They are so ignorant about what is happening in other parts of the world. I am also asked bizarre questions about snake charmers and cows walking on roads. I have to clarify that we do have snake charmers in our country but they aren't our next-door neighbours.“ But that's some of the simpler questions that Priyanka has to face. She battles tougher ones on women's issues, particularly rape. “The worst statement thrown at my face is `India is known for its rape cases'. I hear that in every interview. It's so difficult to defend it. Can you imagine standing there and speaking for people of my country? I want to tell them that it is not just in India. Yes, the spotlight is on us right now and it is gruesome. But it is happening to women all around the world. Why are we not talking about that? I can name five other countries where crime against women is on the rise.But, the fight shouldn't be about where rapes are more. Isn't it awful that rapes are happening at all? It is necessary to set our perspective right,“ says the actress.

Priyanka Chopra's 'Quantico' faces lawsuit

Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopr's maiden American TV series 'Quantico' is involved in a lawsuit filed against producer Mark Gordon amid claims that the idea for the ABC FBI drama was lifted from a 1999 documentary that aired on CNN. Filmmakers Jamie Hellman, Barbara Leibovitz Hellman and business executive Paula Paizes, filed a 35 page complaint in Los Angeles Superior Court, which states that Gordon took the show's premise from their documentary 'Quantico: The Making Of An FBI Agent', reported Deadline. The complaint says Paizes and Gordon formed a business relationship in 2001 and she introduced him to the filmmakers. In May 2002, Leibovitz and Hellman signed a deal with the Mark Gordon Company and 'provided MGC with the film from the Documentary, information which was not included in the documentary, including all of their notes and transcripts related to the film.' The suit says the 'Quantico Project' initially was discussed as a movie, with a storyline that 'included a conspiracy inside the FBI Academy.' After Hellman and Leibovitz executed a three-month extension on their option with MGC, Gordon who was working on another project said in an February 2003 email to Paizes that he "would be happy to discuss this when I get back. It's a good idea." But according to the lawsuit, "neither Gordon nor MGC made any further efforts to work with Plaintiffs to develop the 'Quantico Project.' Alleging breach of contract, fiduciary duty and more, the filing seeks a jury trial, actual and punitive damages and a "based on" credit for Hellman and Leibovitz and their documentary. The Mark Gordon Company had no comment on the suit. 'Quantico' is one of the success stories of the fall broadcast season. The ABC drama centered on a class of FBI recruits, one of whom is a sleeper terrorist, has held ratings week over week and is Sunday's top broadcast program among the advertiser-coveted adults 18-49 demographic.

I was sceptical to sign 'Quantico': Priyanka Chopra

American TV series 'Quantico' is a big break for Priyanka Chopra in an international scene but the actress had second thoughts about signing the show as she felt it would require a long commitment. The 33-year-old actress bagged the show during the shooting of 'Gunday'. "I was a little sceptical initially because it's a long commitment. I had to balance television and Hindi films. The script was incredible and I just couldn't say no to it" said Priyanka. "I was shooting 'Gunday' when Kelly Lee, who is into casting, came to meet me. Then I had to go to LA and read the 25 pilots that they had picked for me and tell them the ones I liked. I am happy that I got my first pick, which was 'Quantico'" the actress said. Priyanka said her team and the people in the US have been warm to her.
